Assin North: EC Likely To Swerve NDC With By-Election Despite Stay Of Execution – Asiedu Nketia

General Secretary of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia has insisted that the party will go all out to ensure the annulment of the 2020 Parliamentary results in Assin North is overturned.

The Cape Coast High court presided over by Justice Kwasi Boakye, ordered for fresh elections to be conducted in the Assin North constituency.

Handing his judgement on Wednesday, the judge said the MP, Joe Gyaakye Quayson violated constitutional provisions and other statutory provisions that guide Ghana’s elections.

Speaking in interview, the NDC said the Electoral Commission may attempt to go ahead with the by-election despite the stay of court proceedings, however, the NDC will stop at nothing to ensure the ruling is overturned.

“We know that the EC, Government and Judiciary can collude to disfavour our interest in this saga but we’ll fight hard in court because that is our only option. I won’t be surprised if the EC may swerve us and go ahead with a by-election even when we’re in court but we will stay the course in our legal battle” he was quoted by kasapafmonline.
